CNN reporter Peter Hamby said a report out of today’s Wall Street Journal
concerning White House staff planning for a possible Hillary 2016 run
must be causing consternation in Vice President Biden’s office Wednesday
on New Day.

The Journal’s story indicated White House chief counsel John
Podesta is trying to organize meetings between Clinton and White House
staff to prepare for her eventual campaign.

The New Day anchor asked Hamby if the White House’s alleged actions are a “slap” at Vice President Biden.

Hamby said “it certainly seems like it,” adding Podesta’s behind the scenes meddling is just the latest instance of Obama personnel disrespecting Biden as he ponders a 2016 run.

“This is heads exposing in the vice president’s office,” he said.

“It’s not just Podesta. Remember Jim Messina, top presidential
adviser recently left to advise a Super PAC that will ostensibly be
supporting a presidential campaign for Hillary Clinton. That rankled
Biden and his allies. Look, Biden, we don’t know if he wants to run but
he is certainly keeping his name in the conversation and I think he just
wants a little bit of respect. And this has to really — this really has
to stick in his craw, I think.”
